Entering text

L

Lacreeda

Is there anyway that I could enter text on one slide and have it appear on
another?

I am working on training presentations and I need to be able to show
documentation of who and what training. I was thinking of having a
certificate of completion at the end of every pp show.

Does anyone have a better idea? If so, please share.

This can be done with VBA programming. You could provide a form that pops
up at the beginning of the presentation asking for their information and
have that information (variables) fill text boxes on the last slide
(Certificate Slide). If you are interested in using VBA, holler back and I
will try and put together an example.

I'm interested; however, I'm not familiar with VBA. I'd like to learn though.
Thank you

Bill will probably fix you up with an example that is just what you need.
You might also explore some of the examples on my site (none of them are just
what you asked for, but some are similar):

http://www.loyola.edu/education/PowerfulPowerPoint/

Example 7.9 is the most similar. You also might want to explore the
Programming PowerPoint section of the PPT FAQ to learn more about VBA. It
can do a lot of things you might want to do with interactive training modules:
